Why oh why do we all have to listen to barking dogs at all hours of the day???? Totally irresponsible owners who must be deaf stupid or both ???? The four that we have to listen to are in the garden all day while the owners are at home ,surely they have a duty to other residents to keep them under control . But then again it shows the illiteracy of the owners

Hi exsas, first of all, my site was hijacked by my partner, then I joined in halfway through.
In the past at my other house, i' ve approached irresponsible owners only to be met with abuse and bad language. I now live in what I consider to be a nice, select area, and if the people living there ( with dogs) can not respect other peoples lifestyles, my comments to them personally are not gonna change by me having words. It seems most of my new neighbours are sick of the noise, so the next step will be a denuncia.

ok fair comment i suppose.........but i do think a nice approach to these people first is the right way,then if its no joy go denuncia way.
myself personally i would be more upset at a denuncia out of the blue than a neighbour voicing his opinion to me in a friendly way.

Mark the problem is with the owners and may i say with these dog re homing charities that keep letting the same people take more dogs than they need. We have a couple near us that now have taken in six yes six dogs that are just left in the garden to bark and bark all day when they decide to go to work and then stay away till 11 or 12 pm these so called dog lovers are not thinking of there neigbours and the impact it has on peoples lives, this couple don't even walk these dogs is this the sort of people the dog charities really want to look after the dogs and why are these people not checked out or is it give these dogs a home at any cost ???? When a denunciation goes in against these people and they have to move the dogs on do the dog charities just dump them onto the next miss led person and so the noise continues. People need to use common sense and think of there neighbours as well as the dogs

Why do people put comment to indicate that people can have as many dogs as they like, its totally rubbish or do they hope by saying it often enough it will be true. Facts like this are so easily checked.

Mark, I have nothing against dog owners and realise they give companionship to many. It's just that I find it confusing when just one is not enough. Your waste bags must get awfully full and smelly when you take them for a walk. Congratulations on your power of observation that I come from Quesada, the tag line is always a give-away.

Constant barking dogs is a pet hate of mine (pun intended) - not the odd bark when someone is knocking the door, the barking of a dog put in the yard and continuously barks - which everyone can hear apart from the damn owners.
